Sorry if this type of post is repetitive, but I just switched to Claude Pro (from ChatGPT Plus) and am extremely impressed. I was originally using Sol 5.6 (high-xhigh) to build a program which can automatically identify the internal resolution of a video (that is, the resolution before upscaling). At a high level, spatial upscaling tends to leave a ‘fingerprint’ in the frequency transform / spectrum of a given frame. There are some other technicalities regarding calibration, confidence levels, and distinguishing between spatial and temporal upscaling. The following things impressed me when I handed the project over to Opus 5.5 (medium): It managed to both improve the algorithm accuracy, and massively speed it up from ~1.5s/frame to 240 frames/s. The 1.5s/frame was Sol’s limit when I asked it to optimise. It found that Sol’s implementation would get confused by codec artifacts (compression), so would often guess 1350p, for example, instead of the 1440p ground truth. Efficiency: Opus used ~2-3x less of my quota than Sol. Obviously different tasks, but this is a rough estimate per total output. Of course Opus is meant to compete with Astra, not Sol, however it appears to be even cheaper than 5.6 Sol in practice (not sure about API, but certainly on subscription). submitted by /u/Heavy_Inevitable_341
